JUst to make you feel good


2016 under-19 world cup final


West Indies beat India a team that had Rishabh Pant, Isan kishan opening. Then it had Sarfraz khan, Washington sundar.


Sundar and Pant have come a long way. From West Indies side


Imlach, Hetmyer(captain) Carty

If I were 20 years younger


i would walk around with AlJo, Sheep, JHo in my back pocket

Chase suffering same malady as Padams. Bad technique creep into their game ala closed bat face, loss of footwork, squaring up and stuck on the crease.

These guys fulla shyt.


The paint of WI is more manageable when everything is put in its proper context.


The players invariably hold the long end of the stock, so to speak.


Been a while I've come not to heap most blame on the players ( with exception for the mercenaries of course) but rather the 'litany' of past administrators

@sudden

At present tour....I don't blame batters or bowlers...most touring India first time...no experience....

Further, CWI,Head Coach and Sole Selector was under obligation to organise a 15 days camp in Caribbean with selected players before boarding flight for India tour..... instead Head Coach and sole selector was busy with CPL and CWI busy arranging flight for Lara,Viv,Richie for sponsorship in India... blaming all but the real culprits....

Funny you should mention that. I almost thought it didn't happen.
